This unique Blue Mountains property is Australia's most spectacular inter-war period garden and has received acclaim from garden lovers worldwide.
Visitors can enjoy sweeping views of the World Heritage-listed Blue Mountains while strolling through the beautifully maintained gardens and exploring the Art Deco house. You can also stop for a delicious Devonshire Tea in the tea rooms or bring a picnic to enjoy on the lush green lawns.
The gardens feature expansive garden terraces bordered by magnificent dry-stone walls with seasonal displays of autumn colours, with cherry blossoms and tulips in spring. See the tranquil grotto and reflection pool, with views of Mt Solitary and the Jamison Valley.
Everglades House has recently been refurbished, with freshly painted interiors and meticulously restored artworks transforming it back to its former Art Deco glory. It offers a self-guided tour for visitors and a new exhibition space.
The original squash courts have been converted into an art gallery offering local artisans the opportunity to exhibit their works whilst providing visitors with the opportunity to appreciate and support the creative Blue Mountains community.
Groups can be catered for with special packages and there are also function rooms that can be hired for various corporate needs.

If you prefer or want to experience a ticketed walk of nature then this place fits the mould.
Heritage architecture surrounded by beautiful garden and glades it’s a treat for art lovers.
It’s maintained by national trust and operated by volunteers so access to tea rooms and house tour is not available on a Wednesday/Thursday however you’ll still be able to access other parts of the garden.
(would suggest to keep the entry fee at a subsidised price for these days though)

My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed exploring this gorgeous Art Deco house and gardens in Leura today. It is open from Wednesday to Sunday each week. and the tea room is open from Thursday to Sunday. You need to allow a couple of hours to wander around the extensive gardens, designed by Paul Sorensen, and the beautifully preserved house.
